How so?
AH!....and now I'm going to ask what I've been wondering about......what is that 'spiky' plant at bottom left hand corner? Something to 'go with' the style of lighting..?
My peppers and chillies were sown about the same time as yours but are nowhere near as big. Is this due to your having a different lighting set up
and is a metal halide lamp expensive to run compared with 45W growlamp bulbs?
I have been using multi-purpose compost mixed with perlite to grow my seedlings for many years, but it seems, from what my neighbour says, that I should be using John Innes seed compost, especially for chillies. I would be interested to know what you are all using?
Thanks Goodlife.I have a couple more questions in relation to your last post. You say that you put sand in your compost mixture and I assume that you use silver sand? I wasn't certain from what you said as to when to start feeding? Is it best to wait until they are in the greenhouse or do I need to give them something sooner whilst they are still in the light box or on my working surface indoors? Thanks.
Goodlife, what do you feed with? Is there any preferred feed for plants under lights?
I start feeding as soon as the seedlings have true leaves. I use a very dilute liquid fertiliser
